IBPS SO Results – Calculation Process

Raw Score

The score in IBPS SO Preliminary Examination is calculated on the basis of raw marks.  Raw scores are the marks obtained by the candidate in the primary stage.  The IBPS SO exam consists of questions giving 1 mark each.  0.25 marks are deducted for every wrong answer.

For example, a candidate attempts a total of 80 questions in the preliminary examination.  Among them, there are 12 incorrect answers.  In this case, the raw score will be calculated as follows:

  80 – 12 – (1/4 * 12)

  80 – 12 – 3 = 65

  Here, 65 is the raw score.

Final Score

The final score is calculated as a combined score.  The score calculation is based on the candidate’s score (out of 100 marks) in Mains and the marks obtained (out of 100 marks) in the interview round.  The weightage of marks awarded to IBPS SO mains and interview is calculated after an 80:20 ratio.

The marks obtained by the candidates in the Mains exam (out of 100) are converted into 80 marks.  Similarly, the marks obtained in interview rounds are converted to 20 marks.  Finally, the IBPS SO cut-off score for provisional allocation is calculated from a total of 100 marks (Mains score 80 + interview score out of 20) (80:20) and the elimination of inter-to-merit (relationship) birth date.

Formula

Total score for final allocation = {[marks obtained in Mains Examination / 100] x 80} + {[Points obtained in Interview / 100] x 20}

For example – if a candidate has scored 0 marks (out of 100) in Mains exam and 100 marks (out of 100) in interview, then the calculated allocation score will be:

 [(80/100) x80] + [(70/100) x 20]

 64 + 14 = 78

Here, 78 will be considered the final allocation score.

IBPS SO Results – Normalisation Process

The difficulty of IBPS SO question papers varies for each session.  The IBPS’s right to conduct the exam follows a normalization process to maintain fairness and equality among the examinees.  This process is established to compare the scores and qualifications of the test takers in different sessions.

The IBPS authority adopts the normalization process so that no candidate gets undue benefits.

The IBPS uses the equi-percentile technique to obtain the correct marks obtained by the candidates in the pre-mains and mains examination.  This is done through the normalization process for calculating IBPS SO result 2020.  The score is usually scored up to two decimal points to be counted.  The marks obtained will be considered to shortlist the candidates for the next round (mains and interview).

The IBPS has adopted a prefix formula to compute normalized digits.  This formula is also known as a generalized Marx calculator.

For Example 

A candidate gets 142 marks in the first shift.

Average score of top 0.1% candidates in all sessions = 191

Sum of Mean and SD (cut-off) for all sessions = 131

Average score of top 0.1% candidates in first shift of the day = 185

Sum of Pisces and SD (which is basically the cut-off) for the first session of that particular day = 129

Normalisation marks = (60/56) (13) + 129 = 142.92

IBPS SO Results – Tie Breaking Rules

If two or more candidates achieve the same score in the IBPS SO result, the authority to select the candidate’s posts follows the rules given below –

Whoever gets the highest total marks in IBPS SO is ranked higher.

If there is still a tie, eligibility will be determined based on age criteria.  Simply put, older candidates will be placed on the basis of higher merit.
